2012 Cincinnati Santacon: Eat, Drink & BE Santa!

Cincinnati Santacon is essentially a gathering of like minded individuals who wish to both get into the Christmas spirit, as well as spread Christmas cheer to their fellow man.

SIGN UP and follow Santa on Twitter….On the morning of the event you will be contacted via mobile phone text message through Twitter and instructed to descend upon a location while wearing your Santa Claus Suit. Throughout the day you will continue recieving text messages and Tweets guiding you through Cincinnati (on foot) from location to location. Many of these locations are bars so this is not an event for children. The group of Santa Clauses will sing songs, make merry, and generally spread good cheer through the city.

Santa wants to be clear that while Cincinnat Santacon IS based around a pub crawl, that quickly becomes a secondary aspect of the event. Santas who join us will find that getting into the Christmas spirit and spreading good cheer to your fellow man is the true appeal of the festivities. Former participants would attest that the day is truly magical and the spirit they felt that day was why they will return year after year.
